Smelly Nappies

Could anyone tell me what to do about smelly nappies? Even after washing my nappies still smell faintly of urine at the moment. I use Amolin & usually put them in the sun but haven't lately...hmmm could the lack of sunlight be it?

Sunlight or frost will get rid of the smell.

Also might be worth doing a strip wash - a drop of dishwashing liquid in the machine, and then rinse until no suds.

Thanks Kazbah - am I right in that strip washes are done on clean nappies only?

I have this problem with a few of mine at the moment too.
Does the strip wash have to be HOT wash or cold? Does it matter?

Thanks :D

Do you pre rinse? I don't have as bad a smell with our nappies now from doing one.

Good thread about strip washing here too https://www.bellybelly.com.au/forums...ip-washes.html
